Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cooking vessel having a detachable handle, and more specifically, to a cook set including a handle easily attachable to and detachable from the cook set, wherein once the handle is coupled to the cook set, the handle is firmly fixed to the cook set even when the cook set is moved or flipped during cooking.
  • cooking vessels may be used as outdoor cooking utensils, and have been widely used for cooking foods in indoor places such as homes or in outdoor places such as mountains or camping grounds.
  • Such a cooking vessel used for cooking food may include a vessel body and a handle coupled to the vessel body.
  • the cooking vessel may be placed on a burner or a gas stove after putting food into the cooking vessel and closing the cooking vessel with a lid.
  • a cooking vessel may include a cylindrical vessel body, a handle provided on an outer surface of the body for a user to grip the handle during cooking, and a lid provided on an upper portion of the cooking vessel.
  • Detachable handles may be classified into a type disclosed in Korean Patent Application Publication No. 10-2004-0043798, in which a detachable handle fixed to a cooking vessel body by biting an upper edge of the cooking vessel body like tongs, and a type disclosed in Korean Patent No. 10-1217604, in which a detachable handle fixed to a cooking vessel body as a coupling part of the handle is coupled to another coupling part formed on a side of the cooking vessel body.
  • cooking vessels may be nested inside one another by placing a relatively small cooking vessel inside a relatively large cooking vessel until all the other cooking vessels of the set are inserted inside the largest cooking vessel. Since the largest cooking vessel accommodates all the other cooking vessels, a user may easily carry all cooking vessels of a cooking vessel set as if the user carries only one big cooking vessel.
  • cooking vessels have been manufactured to have fewer and closely contacting protrusions in order to minimize the total volume of cooking vessels and improve spatial efficiency when storing the cooking vessels by placing a relatively small cooking vessel inside a relatively large cooking vessel.
  • a handle of the type disclosed in Korean Patent Application Publication No. 10-2004-0043798 has a complicated structure because the handle fixed to a cooking vessel body by biting an upper edge of the cooking vessel body like tongs, and is also hygienically unacceptable because a portion of the handle located inside the cooking vessel body may be in contact with food being cooked.
  • a handle of the type disclosed in Korean Patent No. 10-1217604 may be detached from a cooking vessel body when the cooking vessel is flipped, and the cooking vessel has a large volume because of a large coupling part formed on the cooking vessel body. Furthermore, the handle of this type is not easily attached to and detached from the cooking vessel body.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a cooking vessel including a handle easily detachable from the cooking vessel to reduce the overall volume of the cooking vessel and easily carry the cooking vessel, wherein once the handle is attached to the cooking vessel, the handle is firmly fixed to the cooking vessel even when the cooking vessel is moved or flipped during cooking.
  • a detachable-handle type cooking vessel of the present invention includes a cooking vessel body and a cooking vessel handle.
  • the cooking vessel body includes a V-shaped insertion coupling part protruding from a side portion of the cooking vessel body, a circular fixing plate extending from the V-shaped insertion coupling part, and a recess concavely formed in a center portion of the circular fixing plate,
  • the cooking vessel handle is a reverse L-shaped plate including a grip part for a user to grip, a V-shaped hole defined in a bent portion extending from the grip part, and an open hole defined in a front portion of the grip part to expose a finger-press protrusion part,
  • a plate spring having a reverse L-shape is provided on a lower portion of the cooking vessel handle, the plate spring including a plate spring attachment part fixedly attached to a rear portion of the open hole of the cooking vessel handle, a plate spring contact part extending from the plate spring attachment part for making tight contact with the circular fixing plate, a plate spring protrusion stopper protruding from a front portion of the plate spring contact part and inserted into the recess to fix the cooking vessel handle, and the finger-press protrusion part extending from the plate spring attachment part and located inside the open hole.
  • a cooking vessel body and a cooking vessel handle of a cooking vessel are separable such that the cooking vessel may be easily carried.
  • the handle is easily detached from the cooking vessel body by pressing a finger-press protrusion part to release a plate spring protrusion stopper from a recess, and then pushing a grip part downward to separate the handle from the cooking vessel body.
  • the cooking vessel and the handle may be fixed to each other without being shaken left and right owing to a V-shaped insertion coupling part and a V-shaped hole. Even when the cooking vessel is lifted upward using the handle, the handle is not detached and is maintained in a fixed state by a lower end portion of the V-shaped hole.
  • a plate spring protrusion stopper prevents the handle from being unintentionally detached from the cooking vessel when the cooking vessel is put down and prevents the handle from being detached from the cooking vessel body even when a user flips the cooking vessel while holding the handle.
